Perhaps because it’s not as youthful as once it was, or because it has yet to develop much bottle-aged complexity, but this top-drawer progeny of the so-called ‘white Grange’ project is becoming a little bit obvious and looking over-worked. It’s packed with ripe ruby grapefruit, charry oak, malolactic butterscotch and presents a creamy, leesy mouthfeel , but the wine today appears a little broad and contrived. Perhaps all it needs is time.
95A is a big, seamless and generous wine with creaminess and weight. Its pungent, nutty and toasty bouquet is developing in honeyed, spicy and lemony fashion, with a background of apple, melon and fig fruit. Its palate is acquiring more richness and weight, but still finishes savoury with integrated acidity. It’s a good chardonnay which just lacks the nerve and vitality of the best of them.
A persistent and delightfully balanced and supple wine with generous flavours, poise and elegance. Its smoky, mealy aromas of dusty citrus and peaches, melon and bananas are backed by buttery/vanilla oak and some funky, nutty sulphide influences. Restrained and creamy, it offers a fine length of juicy and brightly lit fruit culminating in a lingering chalky finish.
